I stopped my big truck in Batesville,MS about 60 miles south of Memphis. After watching this video I thank the LORD I did.🙏🏻
-
Can't overestimate enough how truckers are appreciated for what they do specially in this kind of weather.
-
Thank you to all the truck drivers who risk driving in these awful conditions. You guys keep us fed and warm.
-
A big hi-five for the air-drone pilot for well describing this iced road curve. Super surveillance w/the up close shootings. Thks for the vid.
-
The drone operator (camera) did an excellent job.:trophy-yellow-smiling:

Dispatchers aren’t driving, there comes a time to park your truck! Been there done that!

I haven’t left my house in now six days. I’ve never been so happy I had stocked up supplies along the year. Every time I went to the store I got an extra cans of chili and extra cans of cat food. I knew others that had to be out didn’t need the extra traffic! Bless everyone who had to be and got out and helped!
-
Really crystal clear drone footage. Like being there. 👍
-
Thank you to all truck drivers, emergency vehicles & workers, tow drivers & anyone who has to travel on dangerous road conditions.

I can't believe that this would not be the first place salt or sand would be dumped. I really feel for these people. My heart was beating fast during the semi incident. Poor guy.
-
Excellent footage, especially that drone footage! I appreciate the work you do to bring us these videos, safe travels!👍👍
-
Gotta appreciate the drone flying so well in that weather.
-
This is almost as good as watching a boat ramp on a Saturday 😂
-
So sorry for all these truck drivers out there in these horrible conditions, trying to make a living for their families . 🙏🙏

For those that don't know, the cloverleaf ramp is at the intersection of Crump Boulevard and I-55 As Crump goes west It becomes I-55 North and crosses the "Old" river bridge that opened in 1949. This cloverleaf feeds I-55 north traffic onto the westbound bridge. Notice that it currently has two-way traffic on it. They are also routing southbound traffic on this loop from traffic eastbound on crump from the bridge onto southbound I-55 . They are rebuilding this interchange to get rid of the cloverloops and connect I--55 directly to the bridge.. This interchange was built in the mid 1960s and has been a pain for a long time. It is supposed to be finished in early 2025. (Observing this from South Florida where it is 75 degrees)

I am amazed at how some cars, suvs and trucks can go right through and others are slipping and sliding all over. The best car I ever had in snow was a Plymouth Horizon it was like a mountain goat, never got stuck in that car ever, even when we had 2 feet of snow.
-
The pickup truck getting stuck was the best. The blue car with winter tires drove right on by, weird how that works!
-
I really feel for those guys in the semi-trucks. It's hard enough to make a living out there without losing time on the ice.

2:22 he is like: "I am a DRIFT BOSS now!!!"
